Week 12 Captains

Post by itslikebrandnew »

Had a poor week last week, but redeemed myself on Monday by bringing in Ozil and with 36pts he made my weekly score respectable, and i'm hoping for a repeat performance. T2 is struggling now and after putting Firmino in my team and he didn't start, it's time for redemption and he'll be captain this time round to try to justify my transfer :lol:

T1
Sat: Salah
Sun: Ozil
Mon: Kane


T2
Sat: Firmino
Sun: Hazard
Mon: KDB


The Gooner66 challenge
Sat: Salah
Sun: Ozil
Mon: Sane

It'll be Salah and Hazard (if not fit then Lacazette) in both teams for me. Then Aguero and, if he starts, KDB on Monday.

Yep :- Eden Hazard Lower Back Injury Oct 24: "We are trying to resolve the situation before Sunday's game against Burnley. It is not very easy "

The good thing is the Chelsea game kicks off at 1:30pm Sunday so you'll be able to see the team news and then sort the captain accordingly.

I might go Hazard to KDB for a few weeks anyway. Hazards form has dipped and a dodgy back can play up for weeks so his form might be iffy for a while.

Almost into the top 200 again with T1 even with 2 garbage Fulham players, T2 had a great day and back into the top 1000 however i've burnt up way too many transfers with that team to be a threat.

Dropped 100+ places after 4pts with Ozil. He might be going tonight.

With Hazard being benched yesterday I went with one of those players you never ever ever captain.

A premium defender for an 18pts Captain Haul.

Nice one.

I'm annoyed as my gut told me to bring in Ross Barkley yesterday and i could have got 22pts but didnt want to change to a player for one or two games. Instead i'm waiting on team news today to bring in KDB

Probably having a bit of an overhaul of my T1 tonight.

For somebody who always seems very sure of himself, I'm surprised you didn't spot that Hazard didn't make the squad at all. :wink:

:lol: i didn't what to show him up, as i can't wait for another condescending comment where the opportunity arises to captain a premium defender.......although it might not be this season :lol:

Notice how quiet he went when i threw down the challenge that Gooner66 took up.

Benched or not in Squad. Either meant you had to look for an alternative Captain.

I got lucky yesterday on Captaincy on a choice of two players. (Lacazette being the other) - I’m not going to try
and explain why I didn’t captain Lacazette.

As for the challenge people I am in mini leagues in lurk on these pages and a team I put forward would
have been too similar to my main team. Doing well in the Mini Leagues is my priority.

I was also gonna offer up my actual team but given its position that would have been daft....

Laporte with a nice 22 as captain. Highest league position to date for me, 723rd. 98 this week. Some shit scoring players still though.

I've got 3 premium defenders at the mo Image

Apart from Salah they were my next highest scoring!

Not sure what that says about my team though!

Pretty sure no-one on this site has ever said that. I've said on here before that premium defenders are wasted on my strategy as i'd never captain them. I've had to re-evaluate that slightly as Laporte is a must have at 8.8m and i've changed from 4 to 3 in midfield.

I'm still of the opinion though if you have a choice of captains for a game the majority would go with the premium striker rather than the premium defender or do you think i am wrong there? Last night i had Laporte and Aguero and went with Aguero :(

I did :-
Salah to Aguero
Ozil to Lamela
Schurrle to Laporte

Lamela is the gamble but he's only in for 3 games and i would have only got 1 game from Ozil and that was against Liverpool. I've made the right call taking Ozil out but might have got Lamela wrong although he had been playing well.

Barkley maybe over Lamela? Extra. 1m

That ship has sailed for me. I was going to go Hazard to Barkley on Sunday but didnt fancy using up 2 transfers as Hazard would have to be bought back in as soon as fit (which i'm assuming will be Sunday)
